[Julian Edwards <julian.edwards@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

We're drawing to the close of another release for Launchpad and I want  
to state the deadlines we're approaching so there are no surprises.  Here 
is the schedule for this week:

Friday 22:00 UTC - PQM was closed.  All subsequent  
   submissions are release-critical only which need approval from myself,
   Francis or Robert.

Tuesday 16:00 UTC - devel will be closed to new branches.   
   All landings will then go to db-devel.

Wednesday 12:00 UTC - Buildbot is put into 'on demand' mode.

Wednesday 15:00 UTC - Deadline for submitting to PQM.  
   All queued branches submitted to buildbot.

Wednesday 18:30ish UTC - If there are buildbot failures they are 
   dealt with ASAP and a single [testfix] branch submitted.  When the fixes 
   are in, a new run of buildbot is initiated.  If buildbot has no failures 
then 
   the build is the one that will be used.  No new work will be accepted.

Thursday 06:00 UTC - Final decision about which build we will use
   for the release.  Normally the build corresponding to the last 
   clean run of buildbot is used.  LOSAs begin their preparations for the 
roll-out.

Thursday 08:00 UTC - Roll-out of the release begins.


Developers, please edit https://dev.launchpad.net/CurrentRolloutBlockers and 
inform me as soon as you know of any blockers.

Cheers.
